“We’re getting ready for CU vs. CSU over here in Afghanistan this week,” Alex Banks (PolSci’11) wrote in August. Alex is a second lieutenant located in the northern Helmend Province of Afghanistan along with two other Buffs. One of Alex’s classmates, T.J. Perna (EnvSt’10), is serving in the south with a different unit. The four Marines participated in the NROTC program while they were in Boulder.
